Abstract
A semiconductor device includes a lead frame which has an island portion on which a semiconductor chip is mounted and which is coated with a sealing resin, inner lead portions which are connected to electrodes of the semiconductor chip and are coated with the sealing resin; and outer lead portions which are continuously extended from the inner lead portions and are not coated with the sealing resin. The island portion and inner lead portions are formed to be smaller in thickness than the outer lead portions by, for example, rolling a roller along a material for the lead frame.
Claims6
A method of manufacturing a semiconductor device, comprising the steps of:
- forming a plurality of lead frames, each having an island portion, inner lead portions and outer lead portions, the outer lead portions of each lead frame adjoining and being directly connected to corresponding outer lead portions of an adjacent lead frame;
- and
- forming a groove within each lead frame containing said island portion and inner lead portions of the lead frame.
A method of manufacturing a semiconductor device, comprising the steps of:
- forming a plurality of connected lead frames, each having an island portion, inner lead portions and outer lead portions and forming a groove extending along the plurality of connected lead frames to reduce the thickness of the island portions and the inner lead portions of the lead frames with respect to the outer lead portions.
